DESIGNTHATSHIPS
25 years of shipped product, from the Kindle in your hand to the trucks on the road. Now I pair with AI agents to take a design from Figma to a working Next.js front-end and the MySQL behind it, fast.
“The rarest of designer leaders. A force multiplier.”
Tempo
Tunes.
My new app builds playlists that match your pace. Set a tempo, or shape one that rises, peaks, or fades, and it pulls from an owned database of 1.4+ million verified-BPM tracks, growing every minute. Free to sign up, and it is live in both stores right now.

Designer who builds.
Builder who designs.
UI/UX Design
Design systems, interaction design, and motion, documented all the way through handoff. I start from first principles and the work holds up when other people have to build on it.
- →Design systems & tokens
- →Interaction & motion design
- →Figma → dev handoff specs
- →Accessibility (WCAG 2.1 AA)

Front-End Engineering
Fast, instrumented front-ends in Next.js or React, with motion built in as a system from day one. I treat Lighthouse 95+ as the floor.
- →Next.js / React build
- →Framer Motion + scroll choreography
- →Performance budgets & Core Web Vitals
- →Component libraries
Shipped React/TS at Battle Motors, Fortris, EA
Front-End + Live Data
I build fast front-ends and the live data they run on. battlemotors.com is mine front to back: the React UI and the MySQL behind truck inventory and dealers, built with agentic AI. When a project needs the data layer, I can build that too.
- →MySQL-backed sites
- →Live inventory & dealer data
- →Admin & dealer dashboards
- →API integration

shipped product.
I currently lead design at Battle Motors. Before that: Samsung, Amazon Lab126 on the Kindle, Bose, Intuit, and Romeo Power. I've owned the product story, the design system, and the front-end, wired to the live data and APIs behind it.
